You're not getting all of Slaf's career for the end of Sid's career.

Uhhhhhh?? Why are the Leafs giving up a stud FWD on a ELC AND a first round pick for a salary dump? Even with 50% retention, the Leafs wouldn't take Karlsson for free. Let alone give you a kings ransom for him lol Thats crazy.

Interesting definition of 'stud' and calling Karlsson for 5M a cap dump is just insane

Habs don't even touch Slaf for Sid 1 for 1 and you're adding picks on top of it? Easy pass.

If Sid ever leaves Pit it will be to free agency and by that time Habs should be competing and sell him in a veteran presence for a playoff run on his childhood team

Why would they want to get rid of him then? It is the definition of a cap dump. He is terrible. He makes every team he plays for worse defensively. Maybe watch some Leafs hockey this year, and let me know what you see in Knies and get back to me.
In the meantime, you want Knies and a first and to take that terrible cap dump contract, better have Crosby in that deal too. Or 3 or 4 first round picks.

I can't answer to someone that for knives wants Karlsson at 5mil + 3 first round picks... or even worse wants crosby

you are the only soul on earth that thinks a EK65 at 5mil is a cap dump what else is there to talk about.

Lets talk about why PIT would want to move him....Explain. Please.
And I believe the trade was Kampf, Knies, a first, a 4th, and the biggest cap dump the league has ever seen.
Also, please learn a little about sarcasm.
Thats said, lets start with the decision to move Karlsson. Why not keep him? He is so good right? Why would you want useless Knies for amazing Karlsson?

easy read the description... it is a scenario where pit is rebuilding and trading the best assets to gain futures prospects and picks. I also traded crosby and geno I really don't think they aren't good, actually I believe they are all stellar, but if dubas is trending towards a rebuild it has to be done in a similar way imo. no need to be just mediocre for longer. just suck or be good. I'd rather still compete but management seems to think otherwise.


knife isn't useless is a good prospect that can become someone. on the other hand EK65 would be the best Dman Toronto has at a very low cap hit for what he brings.

The best D man Toronto has?? You cant really believe that? He is one of worst defensive D man in the league. You understand that right? It has been widely considered the worst contract in hockey for years.
What value to Toronto, a team in desperate need of DEFENSIVE upgrades, would ANOTHER terrible D man who is soft on the puck, old, overpaid, and worse than Rielly at defense be?
You also showed no interest in Knies value earlier. Now all of a sudden you think he has big value.
No value when the conversation is about his worth in trade.
But big value once you have him on your team right?
Im sorry, this cannot continue. You lost me by suggesting Karlsson was something Toronto would want or need. By suggesting Karlsson wasn't terrible defensively, and by suggesting he would be Toronto's best D man. Right now he would probably be 3rd. After McCabe, Rielly. Benoit is also more valuable to TO than Karlsson would be. Even at a ridiculous 6.5m per year. And a career -99.

you are putting words in my mouth. never said knies has no value, simply not close to the value you think (3first rounders lol).

anyway this conversation ends here. you clearly don't have any idea of what EK brings and why he almost won a cup in Ottawa by himself and won the Norris two years ago, but hey "svgsdv" say he is terrible so lets just leave it at that.
